TAP Producers |
TAP producers are any systems which output TAP. This page contains a catalog of software libraries that can act as TAP producers, grouped by programming language.
Languages: Ada, C, C++, C#, Common Lisp, Elixir, Erlang, Fish, Forth, Fortran, Go, Haskell, Igor Pro, Java, JavaScript, Limbo, Lua, MATLAB, OCaml, Omnis Studio, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Prolog, Python, Ruby, Sass, Shell, SQL, and TypeScript.
Some test frameworks exist with TAP producers that are not language specific.
Ada is a modern programming language designed for large, long-lived applications – and embedded systems in particular – where safety and security are essential.
Ahven is a unit test library for Ada which produces TAP 12 output.
C is an imperative (procedural) language. It was designed to be compiled using a relatively straightforward compiler, to provide low-level access to memory, to provide language constructs that map efficiently to machine instructions, and to require minimal run-time support.

Fortran (formerly FORTRAN, derived from "Formula Translation") is a general-purpose, imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing. Originally developed by IBM in the 1950s for scientific and engineering applications, Fortran came to dominate this area of programming early on and has been in continuous use for over half a century in computationally intensive areas such as numerical weather prediction, finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, computational physics, crystallography and computational chemistry. It is a popular language for high-performance computing and is used for programs that benchmark and rank the world's fastest supercomputers.
Fortran encompasses a lineage of versions, each of which evolved to add extensions to the language while usually retaining compatibility with prior versions. Successive versions have added support for structured programming and processing of character-based data (FORTRAN 77), array programming, modular programming and generic programming (Fortran 90), high performance Fortran (Fortran 95), object-oriented programming (Fortran 2003) and concurrent programming (Fortran 2008).
